My Ceo Husband is Sworn Enemy

Chapter 272: Chapter 272 Repeated Disappointments_1
It was my phone ringing. Glancing at it I saw an unfamiliar number, but it only rang once and then stopped.

I figured they must have dialed the wrong number because I didn’t answer it.

Turning around, Ding Yinuo presented me again with two bottles of medicine.

“Don’t forget to take this medicine!”

“Isn’t it just vitamins? Can’t I just take them occasionally?”

“I think your digestive system is not in great condition and requires long-term treatment. These two bottles of medicine have no side effects, so feel free to take them. It would be best if you finished them all to facilitate a full recovery.”

With one hand holding the properly poured hot water, he held the poured out pills in the other and offered them to my mouth.

“Okay, I’ll take them!”

Since he’d already brought them to my lips, naturally I accepted.

“Uh, what do you mean by a full recovery? It sounds like Yinuo, you’re exaggerating as if I had some serious illness. It’s just a minor stomach ailment!”

I always felt that Yinuo was making a mountain out of a molehill. It’s just a minor illness; there is no need for such concern.

Yet Ding Yinuo spoke very seriously.

“Ayun, I’ve lost you once, and I don’t want to lose you again!”

Ding Yinuo’s gaze was incredibly sincere, deeply touching me.

I always regretted it in my heart.

Why was I so blind as to seek Gu Yuanzhou in the first place? If I had sought Ding Yinuo at that time, would my life have been different?

After taking the medicine, I quickly fell asleep.

When I woke up again, it was already morning of the next day.

I glanced at the time on my phone, it was already 10 am.

I overslept again!

I took a seat on the bed and noticed a sticky note on the table left by Ding Yinuo.

“Breakfast is kept warm in the electric pot, remember to take your medicine after the meal. I am taking my work to Hong Kong today. I may not be able to return in the evening. Take care of yourself and stay in contact if anything happens.”

There was a smiling face drawn on the back of the sticky note.

I saved the sticky note by folding it carefully and tucked it between the pages of a book, then placed it in the drawer.

I went into the kitchen, opened the lid of the electric cooker and steam rushed out…

Today, he didn’t cook turtle jelly but cereal, the small yellow rice boiled and added with jade bamboo strips and red dates, and other traditional Chinese medicinal ingredients, it smells good.

After eating half a bowl, it tasted pretty good and not greasy at all.

Before I could finish the cereal, the doorbell rang.

I opened the door with the cereal bowl in my hand, and it was Wenya standing outside.

“Are you eating breakfast? I have some extra cereal here, would you like some?”

“Breakfast? It’s already noon… Besides, this is a medicinal porridge your man made for you to nourish your kidney. Oh, wow, it really is a medicinal porridge. Seems like you are hoping it could help with… something!”

“Cough! Stop the nonsense! Nothing happened between us, it’s not as dirty as you’re thinking!”

Wenya raised her hands in surrender, “Alright, alright, I’ll stop with the dirty jokes!”

Wenya took a look around the house, finally finding a bunch of snacks.

“Wow, Manager Ding treats you so well, he even bought so many nuts for you?”

Wenya found many boxes of nuts in the candy jar next to the TV cabinet, and she opened the fridge to find fresh fruits wrapped in cling film.

“Well, he did buy a lot, but it’s not necessarily for me to eat! Maybe it’s for him?”

I really like snacks. In the past, every time I went out, I would put some nuts and other small snacks in my bag.

Now, I’m too busy to even find the time to buy them.

“Are you kidding, Ayun? You’re really unaware. The first time we came to Xishan Residence, there was nothing here! Not to mention snacks and nuts, there wasn’t even fruit. The kitchen was as empty as it could be, there was nothing! Now it’s all filled up, it doesn’t need to be said, this is all bought by Ding Yinuo for you, be grateful!”

After selecting from the fridge, Wenya took an apple out, washed it and started eating before sitting down on the sofa.

“There are even cherries, how luxurious! Speaking of which… about that woman, Ye Mengyan, when are you planning to tell Gu Yuanzhou?”

“I’ll wait a little longer!”

“I find her quite annoying now. Using the pregnancy as an excuse, she tells me she wants to eat this and that… It’s quite tiresome daily. Don’t you think Gu Yuanzhou is worried about her? Why hasn’t he asked you for her?”

Wenya’s doubt was also my doubt.

Actually, Gu Yuanzhou knows that Ye Mengyan is in my hands, but he has never questioned me about Mengyan’s whereabouts.

Instead, these days, he has been discussing with several of his buddies about the takeover and removal of the Song family.

Apparently, in his view, dealing with the Song family was the most urgent matter.

“He probably doesn’t have time to worry about Mengyan now, he’s busy dealing with the Song family.”

Then, I told Wenya exactly what happened at the Song family yesterday.

After listening, Wenya felt very angry too,

“He is planning not to leave a way out for himself!”

“I really can’t figure out why Gu Yuanzhou has to target the Song family. Forcing the Song family into desperation… ”

“Do you think there might be some grudge between Song Shixiong and the Gu family, like avenging a father’s death, that forces Gu Yuanzhou to retaliate?”

While chewing on a macadamia nut, Wenya hypothesized ceaselessly.

I looked at her and shook my head,

“No way! My uncle wouldn’t do such a thing. If it was really a matter of avenging a father’s death, who would keep the child of an enemy by his side.”

“Then what could be the reason?”

“I don’t know…”

I didn’t finish my sentence because my phone rang again.

Incredibly, it was a call from Gu Yuanzhou.

I hesitated for ten seconds before answering the call.

“Want to know the news about the mother and son of the Song family?”

The moment he started speaking, he delivered very explosive news.

In fact, from yesterday until now, I hadn’t been able to contact Song Zexi at all.

Although I had called the police, they hadn’t given me any valuable leads.

How could I miss this opportunity?

“What did you do to them?”

“If you want to know, come here, I’ll send a car to pick you up!”

“Who are you sending over? Where are you taking me?”

He didn’t answer my question and abruptly hung up.

Wenya, who was sitting next to me, heard our conversation and immediately suggested,

“Manager Ding isn’t home, you shouldn’t go. It might be a trap. What if he confines you? What would you do then?”

“Yes, I know! I won’t go!”

I agreed like this.

Wenya seemed relieved.

Now it was already late autumn and the weather was a bit cold. It started to drizzle in the afternoon.

Wenya sat down and started talking about Su Peisheng,

“That guy went on a business trip overseas and hasn’t returned yet! And my mother is pushing me to get married again, it’s so annoying. Telling me every day that it’s not good to give birth as you get older, as if getting married is just for having children. I’m at my wit’s end!”

“I feel that Su Peisheng is quite good. If you like him… it’s better to get married sooner!”

“But I’m not mentally prepared yet!”

We chatted for over an hour, then Wenya had to leave because she had something to do at school.

I was planning to go to the company but the moment I stepped out, a black Rolls-Royce pulled up at my front door.

When the car window slowly rolled down, I saw a familiar face.

“Why is it you?”
